I've been having trouble getting syntax highlighting to work on my '```' fenced code blocks. I give it the right/supported language identifier, but nothing changes.
I'm using neovim with a bunch of lsp plugins and treesitter. Anyone have dotfiles with markdown code syntax highlighting working?
Are u using Mason and LSPconfig?
edit: Oh, I don't know that getting syntax highlighting in the blocks is something i've seen
Have you installed the treeesitter grammars for those languages with
:TSInstall language_name
or in your treesitter config?This is pretty much all that’s needed. The language in the block is identified via a name that follows the opening triple backtick. E.g.:
```python some carefully indented code ```
